Meet your private guide at the Anchor Clock and explore Vienna’s old town through six themes, from Roman and Jewish history to Greek traders, Baroque churches, myths, and narrow courtyards. Guides may include Wolfgang Auinger or Max, and tours are available in many languages. The route is best for seeing central Vienna beyond the headline sights.

“Prachtige historische en sfeervolle locatie, goede akoestiek en zeer bedreven musici. Door de intieme setting ben je dicht bij de musici wat bijdraagt aan de muzikale beleving.”
Travel from Salzburg to St Wolfgang in a private group of up to eight, with hotel pickup, a guide, and a horse-drawn sleigh or carriage ride.

Free time in St Wolfgang includes the lakefront, coffee, and seasonal Christmas markets.
“A wonderful winter experience! Something we will forever treasure. I have waited my entire life to go on a horse drawn sled ride through the snow and it was better than I had ever dreamed.”
